Corrupt auto workers union betrays its members by endorsing Biden in presidential race

Shame on these political hacks. Under the Obama/Biden administration the American auto industry was decimated, most especially in Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Factories were being closed and jobs were being lost (here, here, here, here, here) to China. President Trump revitalized the auto industry in the United States (here, here, here, here) by reversing the Obama/Biden administrations policies of appeasement of China. Yet the corrupt leaders of the UAW chose to endorse the presidential candidate who will lead to the demise of the auto workers that they represent. Fortunately this shameful endorsement wont make a difference. President Trump will obtain significant support from America’s auto workers, as he did in 2016 despite the UAW endorsing Hillary Clinton. #Trump2020!

"In these dangerous and difficult times, the country needs a president who will demonstrate clear, stable leadership, less partisan acrimony and more balance to the rights and protections of working Americans." – UAW President Rory Gamble

The union represents roughly 400,000 workers nationwide but has an outsized influence in the crucial general election battleground state of Michigan – as it represents some 150,000 workers with Detroit’s three major automakers. The UAW also represents factory workers in other industries as well as nurses, casino workers, and university graduate assistants.

The UAW’s backing is the latest for Biden by a major organized labor group. The presumptive Democratic nominee’s long touted his working-class roots in Pennsylvania and his decades of support for the unions. Biden’s also highlighted the 2009 auto bailouts that saved General Motors and Chrysler from slipping into bankruptcy and that he championed as vice president in the Obama administration.

The UAW usually backs Democrats in presidential elections – including Hillary Clinton in 2016. But its workers don’t always vote as a monolithic bloc and plenty of the rank and file voted for Donald Trump four years ago. Trump narrowly flipped Michigan as well as Pennsylvania and Wisconsin – two other states with a smaller percentage of UAW members – from blue to red in 2016, helping him win the White House.

The president’s continued to court auto workers since his 2016 election.

The union’s currently negotiating with General Motors, Ford, and Fiat Chrysler to restart factories shut during the past month due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“This issue demonstrates the need for presidential leadership to follow the guidance of science and give workers a seat in discussions over their safety and well-being,” the union’s statement said.
